Background

Description

The present structure is a brick building dating from the 18th century; there was an earlier structure, a wing showing remains of timber framing. There have been changes of use over time. It originally milled wheat to make flour; more recently, when it could not compete with larger mills, it became a hammermill, powered by a diesel engine, to produce grist or animal feed. The mill once had two internal waterwheels; it is now powered by an external overshot waterwheel, driving two pairs of millstones. Other machinery in the mill is powered by a Ruston & Hornsby diesel engine.
